    next I ./configure and make on this directory
    both of them done. next I type make install in the command. this error appeared

    if [ "" = "" ] ; then \
    ./bin/mpiinstall ; \
    else \
    ./bin/mpiinstall -prefix= ; \
    fi
    cp: `/home/meysam/Desktop/mpich-1.2.7p1/bin/tarch' and `/home/meysam/Desktop/mpich-1.2.7p1/bin/tarch' are the same file
    **Error copying file /home/meysam/Desktop/mpich-1.2.7p1/bin/tarch to /home/meysam/Desktop/mpich-1.2.7p1/bin/tarch **
